Lee,
We do this all the time. Check out www.unixodbc.org. It's actually pretty
easy to set up.

There is a free gateway product Database Gateway for ODBC that is OK for
smallish amounts of data. For large amounts of data I'd probably either
use SSIS on the SQL Server side, or if politics/business needs didn't
allow this then I'd probably just write the data to a flat file and
consume the flat files in parallel as an external table.

Hi,
Was wondering if anyone had experience of the best (and cheapest) way
to do this was ?
On Linux with Oracle 11gR2. SQL Server is 2008 I think (maybe 2005)
I know we can do it from the other side i.e push the data in from SQL
Server but it would be preferable to have this is as part of our
existing process so could be ran from within an Oracle package.
i.e does some stuff in a proc then starts sucking some data from the SQL
Server DB.
I was hoping to avoid any expensive "Gateway" products ?
Cheers and TIA
Lee
